Gee, maybe U$N could order 3 or 4 and get a VOLUME di$$count, in lieu of ordering ANY more Ed$els???? Given the shrunken size of U$N carrier air groups-now down to 63-65 aircraft counting helos-a CV of this size should be adequate.

OTOH, if biden does get into the White House, a BOGUE sized CVE would doo, too! :o DFO
